Copper Hewitt Trip Overview
The trip overall that we had was a visually astonishing and intriguing experience. We first went
over around the first floor of the museum while being informed on how symbols and how they have evolved.

The exhibit also offered some interactive elements with how you can open small doors and take a look at what each symbols meant. In addition to interactive elements, around where the accessibility symbol comparison was, there was some pencils and small sheets of paper where you can make your own symbol with it's own original meaning. This had a whole wall piece dedicated to where others previously have made and placed their own original symbol creations. In addition to the museum, even though I haven't taken pictures of the "Give me a sign: The Language of Symbols" exhibit, I did take a bunch of pictures of the following exhibit " An Atlas of Es Delvin" that was truly mind-blowing yet visually fascinating. This exhibit explored the world of sculpturing as well as the creative process of a artist and the "abstract interpretations" of different artists throughout the years. The following pictures show some examples of these "abstract interpretations" and a few
